Album Review

AlyssA –

• 10th Mar 2008

With a sultry blend of soul and pop, a dash of folk and underlying ethnic influences, Alyssa has plenty to offer.

Her ballads have beautiful lyrics and her voice can’t be faulted while the more lively tracks have tribal rhythms and irresistible beats. She experiments with gospel music which, while passionate, doesn’t really suit the UK market. Her foray into rap also sounds forced compared to the genuine emotion pouring out from every other song.

Alyssa is a talented artist with a genuine song writing talent. Having produced a collection which acts as a soundtrack to her own life, she has managed to touch on the equally eclectic musical tastes of modern life.
